I have - and absolutely adore - Annalise. I wanted her in my town and I was excited when she showed up in my campsite. I had much fun convincing her to move into my town as well; we ended up playing rock-paper-scissors (which I won three times in a row ). She's very sweet and kind. Not to mention she always tells me someone is thinking of leaving! That and she loves selling me random furniture.
Ed was one of my original villagers in GC and I want him in my town at some point for that reason! I also love Annalise, and want her at some point too.
Papi is the bomb. I was psyched to have him as one of my original five. Okapis are so ridiculously rad, it's criminal. One time in fifth grade I had to write a paper on okapis and when my class went to the zoo to observe the animals we were writing about, the okapis all just stood still and chewed cud for the whole 15 minutes I took notes on them. So chill, so dope - mind blown.
But seriously though, Papi's terrific. My other favorite horses are Savannah and Annalise. Aside from Papi, I also have Julian, but I'm not crazy about him and waiting for him to ask to leave so that I can give him to a friend.
You can't stand a Spanish word that translates to "father" in English? Okay... But other than that, beauty is in the eye of beholder, so it's all preference from here on out.
I don't know what kind of creepy you're talking about, but I could see why it could be considered creepy now. I was only looking at it form a literal type of view, not so much on what kind of connotations it could have. xD
